They misspelled Powers Boothe on the cover art

Dickieduvet · 04-07-2014, 11:35 PM

Cover art by James Rheem Davis, I have his original print. Nice.

Same artist as Assault On Precinct 13

Man, them there's a whole LOT of floatin' heads!!!

Hey, it's terrific art, but I still would prefer the original one-sheet that's in redrunner's first post in this thread. Saw this opening day on Hollywood Blvd and I remember Dan Haggerty ('Grizzly Adams') was buying a ticket to that same afternoon showing as well.

Great cover art and I'll definitely be picking this up- although admittedly flawed, it's highly atmospheric and features some excellent cinematography. Loved the ending and Ry Cooder's theme is one of my absolute favorite pieces of original music.

frogmeat69 · 04-09-2014, 10:59 AM

How did I miss this thread?? Ordered the import a few months ago, glad I have it, but would have waited had I known.

Oh well, prolly be getting this, too.

Geoff D · 04-09-2014, 11:26 AM

For Shout! cover art, that's not bad. It's still very 'busy', but the green/black colour scheme sets it off nicely.

I've got the UK BD but it's only a screener that I received for my thedigitalfix review, so I'll definitely be getting this.

It's a proper grainy movie though, I hope Shout!'s notoriously iffy encoder is up to the task.

rickah88 · 04-09-2014, 04:57 PM

I couldn't preorder this one fast enough! So glad Shout! Factory picked it up. Can't wait to see it again.
To this day I still get the heebies everytime I think about that scene

[Show spoiler]

Love this movie. Can't wait for the blu.

There is another movie kind of like it called "Hunter's Blood" which I'd also love to have on blu or DVD.

JohnCarpenterLives · 04-09-2014, 05:40 PM

Wow. I completely forgot this was getting released! I LOVE this movie. I was surprised it was so intense. I thought the religious nut was stupid, but the rest is so good I completely overlook it.

I want to gush about the movie, and the music, but I know there's people here who haven't seen it.

It deserves a blind-buy if you're even mildly interested in action films.

Cover art: I love the color scheme, not a huge fan of floating heads, and it's kind of busy. No prob though! I'll have the original poster art under the slip.

I haven't thought about Hunter's Blood in years. I rented it on VHS shortly after it became available at a local rental back then when I was in high school. I remember the movie played out almost like a second-tier made-for-television action film at first, but then I was completely taken off guard by an extremely graphic scene involving a shotgun killing.

Yeah, that's amazingly bad. Pardon my ignorance, but what are the others?

redrunner97 · 04-10-2014, 11:47 PM

To name one of many, Captain America: Colleector's Edition.
